309 m of Sydney Tower, 84 mm on your shelf
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- Turret and narrow spire
The shaft climbs to a wide turret and then a slim spire. Print slowly with good cooling so that thin top stays straight, and use Full detail if the print is large enough to hold it.
- Layers up the shaft
The shaft is one long vertical surface where layer lines show plainly. Layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm keep its edges straight, and a larger print keeps the turret's shape distinct.
- One piece with the ground
Sydney Tower is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Sydney Tower takes the building color.
- File format
You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About Sydney Tower
Sydney Tower is a tower for observation and telecommunications in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, and the tallest structure in the city. The tower rises to 309 m (1,014 ft) over the central business district, on Market Street, with Pitt and Castlereagh Streets on either side, above the Westfield Sydney shopping center. It is the Southern Hemisphere's second-tallest observation tower, and its main observation deck stands almost 30 m (98 ft) above the deck of Auckland's taller Sky Tower.
The Australian architect Donald Crone designed it, the first drawings were made public in March 1968, building work on the tower started in 1975, and the public was let in on September 25, 1981. Before the tower was built, Sydney had a 279 m (915 ft) height limit, set to leave clearance for the flying boats that used the harbour before jet aircraft. A lightning rod added in 1998 raised the height from 305 m to 309 m (1,014 ft) and placed the tip 327 m (1,073 ft) over sea level.
At full speed, three double-deck lifts reach the deck on level four in 45 seconds, where the platform is fully enclosed and gives 360-degree views. The golden turret near the top holds up to 960 people, and the open-air Skywalk, a glass-floored ring at 268 m (879 ft), opened on October 18, 2005. Engineers Australia has recognized the tower with an Engineering Heritage Plaque.
